that's fair. I need to do that, darn it.

The bigger problem is that our institutions have not done their job - everyone knows what's in the files and yet they won't do anything. I don't know what information would force them to remove Trump or his people. No one else can fix it for us.

He doesn't have the self-awareness to understand his expertise - it's kind of instinct for him.
There are a lot of people with the wit to understand his disgrace but not the willingness to hinder it, because they hope to be a disgrace in their turn. Perhaps they could provide expert testimony.

I think part of the contempt for the Cybertruck is that it's really poor at all of the things people want trucks for (including looking cool). Were either the Edsel or the Brightdrop were unfit for purpose?

only while the horse is pooping

if my kids behaved like him they'd either be in jail or military school

Maybe everyone in his party has let him have his way for too long - he's having a tantrum because he didn't get what he wanted and he doesn't feel any need to act like an adult for anyone.

"shofar, so good, so what"

"If you don't let us rape children, everything will fall apart" is not the take someone thinks it is.
Also, what happens to chidren who are abused? You get nothing good, and could get more abuse in the future. Such a system is not stable and taking it apart on your terms is a better option.

it's not great, but money is an easier motivator and boss to live with than nihilism (since eventually fascism devolves to self-destruction, and the people pushing it know it ends).

I guess I preferred it when he just slept than when he wakes up and decides he's a king

being on Truth Social is like watching reality TV in the tank of a Porta-Potty

so I guess it was Mg-72?

"God, why didn't you save me from the flood?"
"What do you mean? I sent you a helicopter, a rowboat, and a speedboat. Why didn't you take them?"

Probably why they also seem to have at best squicky and at worst criminal attitudes/actions towards women. They can't get power by competence, so by force or by right of race is it.

it's supposed to be 11-12% so 20%?

We also have Jim Jordan.
At this point the GOP is what happens when you hire the least competent pedophilic bigot for the job.

Because "racism" has social power and they don't like receiving the logical consequences of what they say and do (consequences are for others).

1) hurray!
2) it would been a much shorter video if she focused on the promises Bob has kept.

AI?

jail is kind. a pillbox full of starving rats is more accurate.

I guess they were hoping that judges would treat and follow the Constitution the way they have?

Not being competent, not caring, and knowing your only qualification is being white are not consistent with much in the way of scruples, but having no scruples is probably an additional requirement for being part of the Trump Administration.

They "earned" it by being white. That's "earned it" in the Trump Administration.

This is what "why not both" was made for - higher CO2 levels can make plants grow and still be a problem when they heat the earth up. If heat shifts habitats northward, there may not be enough sunlight to use the CO2 there is (and there may not be enough water).

It'll hurt first, alas - your body is set to make high CO2 levels feel like pain (it's why drowning or smothering feels so bad) so you'll get out and go somewhere with enough O2. Nitrogen is problematic because it doesn't alert you and so you don't feel bad, even when you run out of O2 and die.

Or private equity decides to monopolize cancer drugs or antibodies by buying them directly from pharma and then charging enhanced prices.
The Trump Administration is what happens when you choose the least competent or most malicious people to run your govt.

I found someone who has some of your problems:
bsky.app/profile/sjsh...

And then you get lots of people starting sports orgs because they know that it's "recession-proof". The only thing "better" will be when private equity gets in on it (if they haven't already).

It's "argument by authority" except without any authority - I guess it's "argument by hope that you're as stupid or dishonest as I am".
